Fileselector Button¶

Widget description¶
This is a button that, when clicked, creates an Elementary window (or
inner window) with a Fileselector
within.
When a file is chosen, the (inner) window is closed and the button emits
a signal having the selected file as it’s event_info
.
This widget encapsulates operations on its internal file selector on its own API. There is less control over its file selector than that one would have instantiating one directly.

Fileselector Interface¶
This widget supports the fileselector interface.
If you wish to control the fileselector part using these functions,
inherit both the widget class and the
Fileselector
class
using multiple inheritance, for example:
class CustomFileselectorButton(Fileselector, FileselectorButton):
def __init__(self, canvas, *args, **kwargs):
FileselectorButton.__init__(self, canvas)
